GCP console is not working too https://console.cloud.google.com/ , however at least the services are still running :) phew

It's a mixed bag. Cloud storage is down but at least cloud logging is up to stream all the errors.

Yup, Ops Genie is BLOWING UP with alerts... but can I get into GCP to see what's going on? Nope.

Everything is affected. Its Gaia(Google Auth) outage, most probably. Disclaimer - Googler here whose workplace chat is not working.

The nature of this downtime is quite severe. How are Googlers resolving this if their internal communications are down?

There are other ways to deliver packets... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IP_over_Avian_Carriers

Just checked https://www.google.com/appsstatus all green, which does not reflect reality for me (e.g. Gmail is down) edit: shows how incredibly difficult introspection is

Solid red now. Everything down

The moment you realize that the only way you notice Google is down is through HN.

Cheers all you selfhosted-FOSS-alternatives! Time to bump up those Patreon contributions...

I happened to use Google Takeout to download everything I had last weekend (~200 Gb)... at first I thought my account was banned and that was the only solace I had, but this definitely is killing my productivity.

Is google's status page actually linked to anything?

Or is it ahem airgapped?
